Atari 2600 Auctions

[SoulBlazer]

I'm not a collector, so I've never gone looking for Atari 2600 stuff on EBay before. I can see why it's so popular to post threads about that system and games here. LOL

I was bored and thought I'd look around tonight, and right away these caught my eye:

Three questions here:
1) What model is that? It's NOT a original 2600 as claimed in the auction. Junior model, perhaps?
2) Why does the Atari joystick have a WHITE handle? I've never seen that before.
3) What happened to the picture? ;)

Is'nt this a pirate cart? Should we expect to get this yanked? :)

Hey, this looks nice -- are these uncommon? I wish I had one back in the day.....

1) It's an atari 2600 Junior
2) The rubber/whatever material part of the stick got pulled off, that's what is underneath, plastic. I have a controller that has happened to as well.
3) Bad camera and/or too much light.

Whoever this seller is, he's extremely lucky. God I wish I could do that with my spare lot I'm gonna sell off soon.

Just about all of dustin1201 auctions end like that. He is a very smart salesman. I have had some auctions up the same time that some of his has been and his auctions just stomp mine :(
